Little Traverse Wheelway


Freezing rain and snow were in the forecast for the planned 50 mile bike tour of Crystal Lake and the Betsie River Pathway so the tour ride was moved to the Little Traverse Wheelway bike path.

The tour followed the Little Traverse Wheelway bike path from Charlevoix, through Petoskey to Harbor Springs and back for a nice 50 mile ride. Troop 1 Scouts completing the 50 mile tour and earning their Cycling Merit Badge were (nick names only) - Ankle Biter, ASPL-N, Butters, Doughy, and Oak Tree. CONGRATULATIONS!

Riding the the 50 mile tour with the Scouts were Mr. Schlak, Mr. Neff, and ASPL-K. The group did not bring a camera but there are several stories and interesting sites the cyclist can share with the rest of Troop 1, just ask!

Master Angler was also on the ride and completed one of his 25 mile ride requirements. The Scoutmaster and BronzeDragon cycled with Master Angler.
